An absolute pleasure to have your student...Magnus,<br /><br />An absolute pleasure to have your students join our YLE session.<br /><br />I totally agree, the experience has to be fun, achievable and transparent. Pictures & colouring totally relevant to young learners, as well as the flashcards in the speaking test. I still remember the first time we ran YLE in 1999; very stressed Yuki & Jim but the kids bounced out of school afterwards! Knew it was a winner right then.<br /><br />Besides allowing children to show what they can do in all four skills, it allows them to show what they can do against a global benchmark. They have succeeded in the same exam with the same criteria as young learners in Argentina, Turkey, Indonesia etc...truly a very different standard.<br /><br />Delighted the results were met with as much enthusiasm as their on-the-day experience. Thanks for your help, and really looking forward welcoming more in October this year.<br /><br />And thank you for helping our pre-schoolers get up to this exam at such a tender age. Well-impressed!<br /><br />Jimjimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17456177073785347711noreply@blogger.com
